Login-Diensten V Zusammenfassung Das Anlegen eines Nutzerkontos ist mittlerweile bei vielen digitalen Diensten eine Grundvoraussetzung, um diese in vollem Umfang nutzen zu können. Nutzer sind daher mit der Herausforderung konfrontiert, alle Anmeldedaten der von ihnen genutzten digi- talen Dienste zu verwalten. Single-Sign-On(SSO)-Verfahren treten mit dem Versprechen an, die Anzahl der ver- schiedenen Zugangsdaten zu unterschiedlichen digitalen Diensten zu reduzieren und den Registrierungsprozess bei neuen Diensten zu vereinfachen. Andererseits können Nutzer technische Hilfsmittel verwenden, um die verschiedenen Anmeldedaten komfor- tabler zu verwalten und zentral zu speichern (z.B. Passwort-Manager). Die Analyse der Nachfrageseite zeigt, dass Konsumenten unabhängig von Alter und Geschlecht mehrheitlich bis zu 12 Onlinedienste in der Woche nutzen. Die Nachfrage nach SSO-Lösungen von Drittanbietern ist mit aktuell etwa 2% sehr gering. Am häufigs- ten werden die SSO-Dienste von digitalen Plattformprovidern (Social Logins) genutzt. Insbesondere Nutzer, die Wert auf eine Ve reinfachung des Anmeldeprozesses und eine komfortable Nutzung legen, ziehen Vorteile aus diesen Angeboten. Der Login via Facebook wird von knapp 60% der Social Login-Nutzer (ca. 7% der befragten Nutzer von Onlinediensten und Webseiten) zur Anmeldung bei Onlinediensten oder Webseiten genutzt. In der Regel verwenden die Befragten 1,2 Social Login-Dienste. Allerdings ist der Zweifel an der Sicherheit dieser Systeme für viele Konsumenten ein wichtiger Grund, sich bei Onlinediensten oder Webseiten nicht via Facebook, Google oder durch andere (soziale) Netzwerke anzumelden. Die verbundenen Dienstanbieter, die diese Anmeldeverfahren auf ihren Webseiten im- plementieren, profitieren davon, wenn sich ein Nutzer mit einem Social Login bei ihren Diensten anmeldet. Allerdings profitieren auch die Anbieter von SSO-Diensten von den Informationen, die durch die Nutzung auf verbundenen Diensten und Webseiten anfal- len. Insbesondere werbefinanzierte Plattformen, die Social Logins anbieten, zielen da- rauf ab, die Benutzerprofile ihrer Kunden mit Informationen anzureichern, die über ihre eigene Plattform nicht direkt erhoben bzw. beobachtet werden können. Dabei ist unklar, welche Informationen genau durch die Anbieter von Social Logins dauerhaft gespeichert werden. Während bestimmte Daten im Rahmen der technischen Bereitstellung der Funktionalität notwendigerweise übertragen werden müssen, können diese auch nach der Leistungserbringung vom Anbieter dauerhaft gespeichert und wei- ter verwendet werden. Darüber hinaus könnten auch Daten erhoben und dauerhaft ge- speichert werden, die zur Erbringung der Leistung nicht erforderlich sind. Wie im Fall des Like-Buttons (Facebook) ist daher zu vermuten, dass die Anbieter von Social Lo- gins nicht nur von der direkten Nutzung der Funktionalität profitieren, sondern bereits implizit von der Verbreitung der Funktionalität. VI Diskussionsbeitrag Nr. 462 Summary Creating a user account is a basic requirement for many digital services in order to be able to use them to their full extent. Users therefore face the challenge of managing the login data of all the digital services they use. Single Sign-On (SSO) services aim at reducing the number login data for different digi- tal services and simplifying the registration process for new services. On the other hand, users can use technical measures to manage the different login data more con- veniently and to store them centrally (e.g. password manager). The analysis of the demand side shows that the majority of consumers use up to 12 online services per week, regardless of age and gender. The demand for third-party SSO solutions is very low, currently around 2%. SSO services are most frequently used by digital platform providers (social logins). In particular, users who value a simplified registration process and convenient use will benefit from these offers. Login via Face- book is used by almost 60% of social login users (about 7% of the surveyed users of online services and websites) to log in to online services or websites. As a rule, the re- spondents use 1.2 social login services. However, doubts about the security of these systems are an important reason for many consumers not to access online services or websites via Facebook, Google or other (social) networks.

  • Keepass Password Safe Help
    KeePass Password Safe KeePass: Copyright © 2003-2011 Dominik Reichl. The program is OSI Certified Open Source Software. OSI Certified is a certification mark of the Open Source Initiative. For more information see the License page. Introduction Today you need to remember many passwords. You need a password for the Windows network logon, your e-mail account, your website's FTP password, online passwords (like website member account), etc. etc. etc. The list is endless. Also, you should use different passwords for each account. Because if you use only one password everywhere and someone gets this password you have a problem... A serious problem. He would have access to your e-mail account, website, etc. Unimaginable. But who can remember all those passwords? Nobody, but KeePass can. KeePass is a free, open source, light-weight and easy-to-use password manager for Windows. The program stores your passwords in a highly encrypted database. This database consists of only one file, so it can be easily transferred from one computer to another. KeePass supports password groups, you can sort your passwords (for example into Windows, Internet, My Website, etc.). You can drag&drop passwords into other windows. The powerful auto-type feature will type user names and passwords for you into other windows. The program can export the database to various formats. It can also import data from various other formats (more than 20 different formats of other password managers, a generic CSV importer, ...). Of course, you can also print the password list or current view. Using the context menu of the password list you can quickly copy password or user name to the Windows clipboard.

  • Keepass Instructions
    Introduction to KeePass What is KeePass? KeePass is a safe place for all your usernames, passwords, software licenses, confirmations from vendors and even credit card information. Why Use a Password Safe? • It makes and remembers excellent passwords for every site you visit. These passwords will be random and long. • It is very dangerous to either try and remember your passwords or re-use the same password on multiple sites. Using KeePass eliminates these problems. • It helps you log into websites • It stores license codes and other critical information from software vendors • It protects all your licenses and passwords with state of the art encryption making it unbreakable as long as you have a good passphrase. I made a 5 minute introductory video screencast . Go ahead and watch it. http://www.screencast.com/t/RgJjbdYF0p Copyright(c) 2011 by Steven Shank Why switch from my OCS Passwords safe to Keepass? Keepass is much better than my program. It is much more secure. My OCS Passwords is not using state of the art encryption. My program is crackable. In addition to being safer, it is even easier to use than my program and has some great extra features. In short, while OCS passwords was a good program in its time, its time has passed. Among the many advanced features, KeePass lets you add fields, copy username and passwords into websites and programs more easily, group your passwords and launch websites directly from KeePass. How Do You Switch from OCS Password to KeePass? What I've done • I worked with a programmer to write a program to convert current password databases into a text file I could import into KeePass.

  • Online Security and Privacy
    Security & Privacy Guide Security and Privacy Guide When thinking about security and privacy settings you should consider: What do you want to protect? Who do you want to protect it from? Do you need to protect it? How bad are the consequences if you fail to protect it? How much trouble are you prepared to go to? These questions should be asked whilst considering what information you are accessing (which websites), how you are accessing the information, (what device you are using) and where you are accessing the information (at home, work, public place). Security & Privacy When looking at your Digital Security you are protecting your information against malicious attacks and malware. (Malware is software intentionally designed to cause damage to a computer). Digital Privacy is different as you are deciding what information you are prepared to share with a website or App (or its third party partners) that you are already using. Permission to share this information can be implicit once you start using a website or App. Some websites or Apps will allow you to control how they use your information. Security Physical access: How secure is the device you are using? Is it kept in a locked building, at home, or do you use it when you are out and about? Does anyone else have access to the device? Do you require a passcode or password to unlock your device? Virtual access: Have you updated your IOS software (on an iPad) or installed the latest anti-virus software on your device? Most devices will prompt you when an update is available.

    Technical Guides KeePass Password Manager Tutorial Wireguard Ubuntu Deployment SQM for 1 Gbps Lines With OpenWrt KeePass Password Manager Tutorial Introduction I don't trust online password managers because they are closed source and companies have been hacked in the past. If you look up "lastpass breached" in Google you can see my point. Keepass is open source and offline. Why put your trust in a company when you can create and access the database yourself? An honorable mention is bitwarden. They are also open-source and you have the option of hosting your own bitwarden server at home as an option. If you want to pay and are willing to trust a company and have your passwords encrypted on their cloud they would be your best bet. Downloading Keepass https://keepass.info/download.html Get the Installer for Windows (2.45) aka KeePass-2.45-Setup.exe. After you get it install Keepass. Recommended plugins (.plgx) to download: Keepass has a variety of useful plugins listed here: https://keepass.info/plugins.html I recommend the following below for now.

  • Password Managers
    Password Managers A Higher Education Information Security Council (HEISC) Resource JULY 2019 Password Managers What Is a Password Manager Tool? A password manager tool is software that helps users encrypt, store, and manage passwords. The tool also helps users create secure passwords and automatically log in to websites. Who Might Use a Password Manager Tool, and Why? Users should employ unique passwords for each website or system to help minimize the impact from the breach of one website or system; however, most users cannot remember a separate password for many sites and tend to reuse passwords or write them on a sticky note attached to their computer. Additionally, organizations may have passwords that need to be shared across teams and want a secure method to do so. Password manager tools allow users and teams to more securely manage many distinct passwords and automatically log them in to websites. The Benefits of Using a Password Manager Tool Password manager tools enable users to create and securely store unique passwords for websites, applications, and other systems without having to memorize or write them down. Risks to Consider When Using a Password Manager Tool Special care should be taken to secure the password tool, as it will grant access to all passwords. The “master” password that grants access to the tool should be very strong and unique, and multifactor authentication should be used if possible. Almost all modern commercial password managers allow users to implement some form of multifactor authentication. You will also need to decide whether you want your password management tool to store passwords locally or in the cloud.

  • The Usable Security of Passwords Based on Digital Objects: from Design and Analysis to User Study∗
    The Usable Security of Passwords based on Digital Objects: From Design and Analysis to User Study∗ Mohammad Mannan Tara Whalen, Robert Biddle Electrical and Computer Engineering Dept. P.C. van Oorschot University of Toronto School of Computer Science Toronto, Canada Carleton University [email protected] Ottawa, Canada Abstract Despite all efforts, password schemes intended to deploy or encourage the use of strong passwords have largely failed. As an interesting alternative to enable users to create, maintain and use high quality passwords willingly, we propose Object-based Password (ObPwd), leveragingthe universe of personal or personally meaningful digital content that many users now own or have access to. ObPwd converts user- selected digital objects to high-entropy text passwords. Memorization of exact passwords is replaced by remembering password objects. We present the design details, variants, and usability and security analysis of ObPwd; briefly discuss (publicly available) prototype implementations in various forms on several platforms; and as a major focus, report on the results of a hybrid in-lab/at-home user study on 32 participants. The results suggest the scheme has good usability, with excellent memorability, acceptable login times, and very positive user perception, achieved while providing strong security for the threat context explored. While we anticipate further experience with ObPwd will lead to improved security and usability, and best practice guidelines, we believe this work lays the foundations for a promising password selection paradigm. 1 Introduction and Motivation Text passwords remain ubiquitous, despite endless criticism. Independent studies conducted decades apart reveal that people consistently choose ‘weak’ passwords [19, 6] for many reasons, including users trying to manage on average 25 password-protected accounts [7].
